Falling for Yosemite




Yosemite in the fall in gorgeous! We visited the park a couple of weeks ago with some of our best friends. Besides our little family- Wade, Renee and their son Hunter, Skye, Kristin, Kristin C., and her boyfriend Ken all made the trip. We spent the day walking around looking at the falls which were still running and picnicing by the water. To end our day we visited the Ahwahnee Hotel and enjoyed Irish Coffees and Coffee Bailys before heading home for albondigas. We stayed at our Cabin in Mariposa making meals, enjoying some wine and playing games. The guys even built a bonfire outside in the rain while some of us made smores and others opted to stay inside with the babies. It's always a good time with this group because we're more than friends-we're family.

Trip to the Pumpkin Patch


Sam and I took Nathan to pick out his first pumpkin for Halloween, well actually we picked it out. We went to a local pumpkin patch and Nathan even rode around in a wagon as we looked at all the goods.

Nathan's First Visit to Disneyland



In October Nathan made his first trip to meet Mickey with Mommy, Daddy, Grandma and Grandpa. We had a great time and Nathan was such a trooper. His first ride was Snow White, then Jungle Cruise, Pinnochio, and he slept through Peter Pan. Talking with Crush at Disneyland California seemed to be his favorite (probably because he doesn't get much T.V. with mommy). See you December Mickey!

Feeling a Little Under the Weather


Yes, it's true . . . Nathan is sick! Despite all my efforts to keep him from catching what I have he still fell sick. I have been battling a sinus infection for the last four days and as Nathan's primary caregiver (a.k.a Mommy), I guess it was just bound to happen. I am so sad for him. However, his spirits are still up and he is still laughing. we hope our little guy feels better soon.
